"Moreover, the Emperor has imperial physicians checking his pulse daily. If something's wrong, they would have found out early."
"But what if they discover it but dare not speak? Or what if the physicians are being controlled?" Ye Zi'an asked casually, raising another suspicion.
Suddenly, Mu Shaoling's expression turned serious, like there's indeed a possibility.
"Looks like I need to make a visit to the palace."
Mu Shaoling paused and said, "I'll first go to Prince Zhuang's Mansion to meet Prince Zhuang. I'll go into the palace tomorrow morning."
"Brother Shaoling, shouldn't we pause on this? By going now, we're essentially telling them we took away Prince Ning, and know about his issues. By heading to the palace now, it'll alert them."
"The snake is already startled." Mu Shaoling waved dismissively. "He's already convinced that this is related to Prince An's Mansion. After the previous incident, he probably will try to smooth over the matter."
